Wake me when a third party is viable in the US. Unfortunately, as it stands, with First Past the Post voting, third parties currently do nothing but split the vote. That’s purposeful, too.

The Working Families Party, especially in areas where Republican candidates aren’t viable.
And I didn’t say to only vote either. There will have to be other political action as well, and I even gave an example of choosing a politician who would be more willing to negotiate during a mass protest.
Voting is a tool in the toolbox, but it isn’t the only tool. And if you are going to get enough people together to push for other political action to induce change, you might as well get them to vote too.
I pointed out a third party to vote for that is actually worth something in my reply. So it isn’t like I’m saying to only vote Democrat.
